Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 1, 2026) - MGM Resources Corp. (the "Company" or "MGM") and QuantumCore Inc. ("QuantumCore") are pleased to announce that they have received the conditional approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE") for the listing of the Resulting Issuer Common Shares (as defined below) in connection with the previously announced reverse take-over of MGM (following the Proposed Transaction, the "Resulting Issuer") by QuantumCore pursuant to the terms and conditions of a business combination agreement dated January 9, 2026 (the "Proposed Transaction"). The Proposed Transaction is expected to proceed by way of amalgamation of QuantumCore with a subsidiary of MGM, in connection with which each common share of QuantumCore will be exchanged for one post-Consolidation common share of MGM (a "Resulting Issuer Common Share").
Immediately prior to the completion of the Proposed Transaction, MGM will (i) complete a share consolidation (the "Consolidation") in respect of its issued and outstanding common shares ("MGM Shares"), on a basis that results in the number of post-Consolidation MGM Shares when multiplied by $1 equals $1,000,000 plus available cash (excluding cash equivalents and marketable securities) less the aggregate liabilities of the Company at closing of the Proposed Transaction (excluding any liabilities incurred in connection with the Proposed Transaction); and (ii) change its name to "QuantumCore Ltd." by way of amalgamation between the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, QuantumCore Ltd.
Upon completion of the Proposed Transaction, the Resulting Issuer will appoint a new board of directors (as disclosed in the Listing Statement (as defined below)) and will carry on the business of QuantumCore.
A listing statement dated March 31, 2026 (the "Listing Statement") has been prepared in respect of the Proposed Transaction which has been filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca under MGM's profile. Investors are cautioned that, except as disclosed in future news releases and the Listing Statement, any information released or received with respect to the Proposed Transaction may not be accurate or complete and should not be relied upon.
The completion of the Proposed Transaction is subject to the satisfaction of various conditions as are standard for a transaction of this nature, including but not limited to (i) the receipt of all applicable board and shareholder approvals for the Proposed Transaction and related matters; and (ii) the receipt of all applicable third party approvals including the final approval of the CSE for the listing of the Resulting Issuer Common Shares thereon. There can be no assurance that the Proposed Transaction will be completed on the terms proposed or at all.
